English National Opera and the National Theatre collaborate in a fully-staged performance of Janacek's song cycle The Diary of One Who Vanished, performed in a new English translation by Nobel Prize-winning poet Seamus Heaney , directed by Deborah Warner. Janacek found the original poems printed in a local newsaper and was inspired by the story of a young man's passionate love for a Gypsy girl and his decision to leave home to follow her. It is clear that Janacek also identified with theyoungman'sinfatuation. He had recently fallen deeply in love with Kamila Stosslova , who provided the inspiration for many of his works.

The first in a new six-part series of experiments in creative radio. The passage of a single day, of human life, of a slowly ageing continent.... Seven radio producers from around the world respond in different ways from their own perspectives to the passing of time in a patchwork of sound pieces, which interweave fleeting human encounters with the music of ancient landscapes. Contributing producers: Siri Kathrine Rude (Norway), Cathy Peters
(Australia), Sushmita Sen Gupta (India), Helen Thorington (USA), Veronika Brvar (Slovenia), Mai Nishiyama (Japan) and Alan Hall (UK).
